Hyperactive?: Exercise is good for people! iif you have adhd with hyperactivity it may help to reduce some of the excessive energy. Exercise may also help to clear your mind and to keep you grounded.

Stretching routine: Aerobic exercise tends to make the adhd more hyperactive, but a yoga stretching routine or one used before gymnastics is more helpful in creating focus.
